Germanophile-1;

Oddly enough, my edition (59. bis 66.Tausend, Reutlingen, 1941, has no color artwork by Sapper inside, only black/white photos and O. Graf's portrait sketch of Boelcke done im Felde 14.10.16 as the frontispiece. Two of the photos are pure padding - one shows a Fokker D.VIII and the other is the classic line-up shot of Jasta 19 Fokker Tripes! Both Fokker-factory photos, for sure. I shall have to look for some other editions to buy so I can have those color paintings...
